Abstract

This article presents the test bench research of a micro cogeneration system with the Stirling engine with an automatic loading system. The tests were conducted for nitrogen as a working gas. The work presents the influence of the load current on the change of the working gas pressure in the working chamber and on the changing voltage on the electric machine. A significant number of repetitions allowed for a statistical rendering of the research description with the use of such measures as: kurtosis, coefficient of variation, coefficient of asymmetry, and of the function of the probability density. The research allows for determining whether the conducted experiment is reproducible and how the chosen parameters influence the character of the system’s work.
